Gun Regulation Issues


Joseph R. Biden   
  Do you know the gun laws in your area? It's a question many are dealing with at this time. Obama has made it perfectly clear that he will address current gun laws and statutes. The unfortunate truth is, we have no choice, because guns are falling into the wrong hands, and our families are at risk.  
 One of the biggest issue I feel is part of the problem happens to be gun shows and auctions. The regulations are as tiff for gun auctions and show, for some reason. We really need to nip this beast in the butt; a because it is out of control. Any fool off the street can walk into a gun show and leave with his hearts content worth of guns. We are not talking rifles for hunting, no its much worse. These auctions & shows, showcase plus sell automatic weapons, hand guns and other terrifying weapons. I would never want my teenage boys to attend one of these shows and buy anything from these auctions.

   I had a personal eye opener recently myself, when I was reading the local newspaper. There was a huge advertisement for a gun auctions in our area. This really shocked me, because we live in the mountains in the middle of no wheres. I live up here for a reason, to protect my children from stuff  like this. Now I see that the greed is not containing itself to the local cities but is bring the death tools out into the back woods. Of course they were selling automatic weapons or I would not be complaining. There are a lot of hunters out here and we are used to that, but the knives and gun shows of such this magnitude were not expected.
   So the question is what to do? Who can we count on to protect our families and our children while they are in school? Currently vise President Biden has a whole comity assigned to this very issue and they are trying to come up with specific regulations for a Universal back ground check in the gun sales industry. This would  make it mandatory for all gun sellers including gun shows and auctions to complete a background check. They would not be able to sell any weapons, without this background check. This surely would come in handy, in this situation, after all, we have a plague of mental illness and the possessed alike, roaming free on the streets. We must have provisions in place to ensure the protection of the American people.
